1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Porcine sapelovirus (PSV), porcine kobuvirus (PKV), porcine teschovirus (PTV), and porcine enterovirus G (EV-G) are all important viruses in the swine industry. These viruses play important roles in the establishment of similar clinical signs of diseases in pigs, including diarrhea, encephalitis, and reproductive and respiratory disorders. The early accurate detection of these viruses is crucial for dealing with these diseases. In order for the differential detection of these four viruses, specific primers and TaqMan probes were designed for the conserved regions in the 5' untranslated region (UTR) of these four viruses, and one-step quadruplex reverse-transcription real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) for the detection of PSV, PKV, PTV, and EV-G was developed. The results showed that this assay had the advantages of high sensitivity, strong specificity, excellent repeatability, and simple operation. Probit regression analysis showed that the assay obtained low limits of detection (LODs) for PSV, PKV, PTV, and EV-G, with 146.02, 143.83, 141.92, and 139.79 copies/reaction, respectively. The assay showed a strong specificity of detecting only PSV, PKV, PTV, and EV-G, and had no cross-reactivity with other control viruses. The assay exhibited excellent repeatability of the intra-assay coefficient of variation (CV) of 0.28-1.58% and the inter-assay CV of 0.20-1.40%. Finally, the developed quadruplex RT-qPCR was used to detect 1823 fecal samples collected in Guangxi Province, China between January 2024 and December 2024. The results indicated that the positivity rates of PSV, PKV, PTV, and EV-G were 15.25% (278/1823), 21.72% (396/1823), 18.82% (343/1823), and 27.10% (494/1823), respectively, and there existed phenomena of mixed infections. Compared with the reference RT-qPCR/RT-PCR established for these four viruses, the coincidence rates for the detection results of PSV, PKV, PTV, and EV-G reached 99.51%, 99.40%, 99.51%, and 99.01%, respectively. In conclusions, the developed quadruplex RT-qPCR could simultaneously detect PSV, PKV, PTV, and EV-G, and provided an efficient and convenient detection method to monitor the epidemic status and variation of these viruses.
